Words and Music by Hank Snow
I've been lonely and so heartsick for you darling
Since the might I said that it must be goodbye,
Now that I broke your heart and left you lonely
Those mem'ries of you darling make me cry.
CHORUS
Those words sweetheart I wish I'd never spoken,
That to another I had gave my heart,
I find that I was wrong, but it's too late dear,
Forever we will be so far apart.
Gone are all the plans we dreamed and visioned,
Instead there's lonely nights, heartaches and pains,
I'd give this whole wide world if I could only
Be free to sit and dream you again.
How often in my dreams sweetheart I wander
To meet you there beneath the old oak tree,
To watch that same old moon in all its glory,
And tell our love as in the used to be.
CHORUS
Those words sweetheart I wish I'd never spoken,
That to another I had gave my heart,
I find that I was wrong, but it's too late dear,
Forever we will be so far apart.
Gone are all the plans we dreamed and visioned,
Instead there's lonely nights, heartaches and pains,
I'd give this whole wide world if I could only
Be free to sit and dream you again.
